I'm excited to see research providing more nuanced insights into how smartphones and social media affect children's mental health. Like food, screen time isn’t inherently good or bad—it depends on the individual, context, and personal predispositions. That’s why outright smartphone bans in schools may not always be the best solution. More importantly, we believe children and teenagers must develop a critical skill for the modern world: the ability to focus in a hyper-connected environment. Simply banning phones doesn’t teach them how to manage distractions—it removes the opportunity to build self-regulation. At the same time, ongoing research is helping us better understand social media’s impact. For example, The Economist highlights a study by Amy Orben at the University of Cambridge that clearly links increased social media use to lower overall life satisfaction. Insights like these allow schools and policymakers to take more effective, evidence-based action. That’s why we’re excited to pilot the Opal app with select schools (to be announced soon), helping students develop essential focus skills and regulate harmful screen time—while giving them the agency to take control of their digital habits.
Nice to see The Economist spotlighting our research here at University of Cambridge, as well as emphasising that at the moment researchers like ourselves are “trying to paint a complete picture with both hands tied behind their back”. Understanding and evaluating the impact of new technologies, and providing up-to-date policy advice to governments and schools requires not just good quality and independent data, but long term and sustainable investment.
